<p>The Philip Volunteer Fire Department presented its annual fireworks display at dusk, Wednesday, July 3, over Lake Waggoner. Patriotic music was played over 96.7 radio during the fireworks display. Fire Chief Matt Reckling said that the crowd seemed to be pretty good sized. The free will donations helped support the $5,000 cost for the fireworks and will help to make next year’s display even larger.</p>

<p> Theresa Deuchar, instructor at the newly re-opened Deep Creek rural school, is the subject on a billboard approximately one mile south of Fort Pierre along Highway 83.<br />
The billboard campaign by West Central Electric Cooperatives, Inc. began the week of August 20. The preliminary work-up and original photography was actually done in the spring of last school year. Then, Deuchar was one of the instructors at Milesville rural school, but then the Deep Creek rural school was re-opened for this school year. The billboard advertisement is expected to remain up for two years.</p>

<p> The storm that came through Haakon County, Saturday evening, June 9, affected everyone in some manner.<br />
According to Susan Sanders, warning coordination meteorologist for the National Weather Service out of Rapid City, a cold front came through from the southwest. “There were a couple of different lines, and they produce stronger winds.”</p>

<p> Starting out with a somewhat local representative of exotic animals, Kevin Vogel set a live skunk on a table, which squirted the audience.<br />
Yes, the table squirted the audience; through a trick pressurized tank of water hidden underneath. Vogel continued to keep the attention of the Philip elementary students through humor, living exhibits and a running lecture on the importance of these animals to the earth and to humans.</p>

<p> The outgoing Philip City Council began the monthly meeting, Monday, May 7. After some old business was addressed, the new mayor and city council members were sworn in to finish the meeting.<br />
“It’s time for me to get the heck out of here,” joked Mayor John Hart. “It’s been a good 12 years. It’s been interesting, but we have to live here. You may not agree with what the city does, but you have to stay consistant and watch precedent. I had a good mentor. It’s been good.” Hart became Philip’s 17th mayor in 2000, and filled three four-year terms.</p>

<p>The building at 204 E. Pine Street was razed Wednesday, April 18. Four different pieces of machinery were used to first take out the light carport behind the former apartment, then the wood and block storage shed in the far back, and finally the block and brick front building. Throughout the day-long procedure, neighboring business owners and employees, and passersby watched from a distance. As shown left, care was taken to not damage the greenhouse immediately east of the main building.</p>

<p> “What bullies don’t like is ... themselves. They want to see what kind of angry bird you really are. Just be a red bird. If you do nothing, they will usually leave you alone. If not, go see the big kids, the teachers,” said Ron Anglin.<br />
Anglin gave such advice and involved the Philip elementary students, all while he clowned around and juggled. He handled everything from yo-yos, soap bubbles, plates, clubs, bean bags to balls. He is a motivational speaker who performed during a Philip elementary assembly in the Philip gymnasium, Wednesday, January 25.</p>

<p> The radiology department of Philip Health Services Inc. has had a Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) scanner installed.<br />
This is a specialized device for detecting bone density, and the onset of osteopenia and osteoporosis. PHSI used to offer this service through a mobile unit, but the mobile unit service out of Rapid City was discontinued and disbanded in early 2011. PHSI has now purchased the same equipment that was used before, and that machinery has been installed for regular use in Philip.</p>

<p>The annual Go 'N Glo Parade, sponsored by the Philip Volunteer Fire Department, was held in downtown Philip, Saturday, November 26, the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Parade line-up began at 5:45 p.m. at the American Legion Hall, and the parade began at 6:30 p.m. The entries were announced this year by Mike Seagar and Lee Ann Knutson. West Central Electric turned off the Philip street lights before the parade. The moving line of lights from the different floats could be seen for blocks. The fire truck seen above has been restored, complete with equipment, by Curt Arthur and Greg Arthur.</p>
